Nonspecific airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), a cardinal feature of asthma, is thought to result from several genetic and environmental factors. Asymptomatic AHR in nonasthmatic healthy subjects might be a risk factor for the development of asthma. Genetic variations in codons 16 and 27 of the human beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)-AR) alter receptor function in vitro and are associated with various asthma-related phenotypes, including asthma severity and AHR. To date, however, few reports have examined the impact of beta(2)-AR gene polymorphism on AHR in asymptomatic healthy subjects.
